8 Easy Desserts That Are Completely Grain-Free

When it comes to grain-free desserts, you may assume it’s a world of fruit salad. But that’s hardly the case! There are custards and cookies and candies to be had that suit the diet and feel every bit as special as standard sweets. These desserts prove it.

The secret to these brownies is coconut flour, which gives them a cake-like texture that’s easy to love. If you’re not worried about making them Paleo, you can use any chocolate chips — otherwise, reach for a brand like Enjoy Life (or just skip them).

Creamy, dreamy panna cotta is a no-bake treat that should be on everyone’s grain-free dessert roster. Top it with just about anything you’ve got, like fresh fruit, jam, honey, nuts, or shaved chocolate.

This sweet, crunchy toffee is a great gift to give if you’re looking for a sweet gift that’s grain-free. Just be sure to save some for yourself to enjoy on its own or crumbled over vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt.
